Introduction
[Briefly identify the quantitative study by following APA
writing style, which means citing the author’s last name and
year of publication. When identifying and discussing the study
do not include the article’s title in your text as that is not how
APA style writing is done. The title can be found in the
reference citations. Instead follow APA writing style and
include only the author’s last name and the year the article was
published when referring to the study.]
[When describing the study do not write with
anthropomorphisms. An anthropomorphism is when you assign
human capabilities to a study or other non-human entities. Here
is an example of anthropomorphism: The study found . . .
Please note that studies are incapable of taking human action.
6. Instead write, for example: Jones (2018) found . . . Avoid
writing like this: The authors found . . . or The researchers
found . . . Instead write, for example: Smith and Jones (2019)
found . . . Smith and Jones (2019) explained . . . Note that in
APA writing style you use past tense verbs to present or
describe a study (see APA 7th ed. pp 117-118).]
[Follow APA writing style and identify the authors each time
you refer to the study. Within a paragraph in which you cite the
same author or authors more than once, include the year in the
first citation and omit the year in subsequent citations within
the paragraph (refer to APA 7th ed. section 8.16 pp. 265-266). ]
[Briefly describe the type of quantitative study; that is, what
specific quantitative design was used (e.g., quasi-experimental,
correlational, predictive correlational, comparative, descriptive
survey, etc.). Describe the purpose of the study (what was the
study designed to accomplish?). Identify the research
question(s) and variables. Use direct quotes sparingly; however,
if there is a research question, copy it and provide attribution
via quotation marks and an in-text citation that includes the
author, year and page or para. number. If there is a purpose
statement, you can copy that as well provide attribution via
quotation marks and an in-text citation that includes the author,
year and page number. At the doctoral level your writing
should be comprised primarily of summarizing and
paraphrasing. If you must use a direct quote ensure the quoted
text is in quotation marks followed by an in-text citation that
includes the author’s name, year and page (refer to your APA
manual 7th ed. Ch. 8 pp. 269-278). Conclude this section by
analyzing how the Chen et al. (2019) study represents a
quantitative design.]
Research Theory Framework
[Briefly describe the study’s theoretical or conceptual
framework. What is theoretical or conceptual foundation for the
study? In other words, what is the theory or previous literature
that provides the basis or foundation for the study? Did the
researcher test a hypothesis that stems from a theory or a model
7. or a body of research or a combination of these components?
What construct or constructs were measured? “A construct is a
hypothetical concept that is typically developed from a
theoretical framework. Constructs are names for things that
cannot be seen (intelligence, motivation, self-esteem)” (Lodico,
Spaulding, & Voegtle, 2010, p. 13). Constructs, concepts, and
variables are derived from theories or models. Describe in
detail the relationship among the theoretical of conceptual
framework and the formation of measurement of variables?
Please do not refer to the researcher’s hypothesis or expectation
as a theory. To be a theory a theory must be published as a
theory.]
[In addition, answer the following questions: Be sure to leave
these questions (prompts) in the assignment. Within your
assignment answer each question below the question.]
1. What were the key concepts of the research framework that
supported the development of the research questions? [Keep in
mind that your answer to this question can be repetitive with the
research theory framework described above. Ensure your
response includes all components of the research theory
framework and describe the support and development
relationship between these key components and the research
questions.]
2. What are your reflections on the connections between
theoretical or conceptual frameworks and research questions as
they relate to developing an Applied Improvement Project
(AIP)?
Methodology
[Identify the research design (e.g., correlational, quasi -
experimental, etc.) and briefly describe the study’s sample
(number of participants, where they were studied, and their
demographics), the study's instruments, and the procedures
used. Note how threats to validity and any legal or ethical
issues or considerations were addressed, referring to the
Creswell and Creswell (2018) text and/or your CITI training.
Typically, researchers as authors will not state assertions in
8. their journal articles reporting studies such as: Here is how I
countered threats to validity or Here is what I did to address
ethical considerations. Instead, they describe how they
countered threat of validity and ethical considerations as a part
of their methodology descriptions. Therefore, you need to be
able to recognize how threats to validity were countered and
ethical considerations addressed. Creswell and Creswell’s
(2018) threats to internal and external validity (Ch. 8 Tables 8.5
and 8.6) apply to experimental studies only and not to other
forms of quantitative research. In other non-experimental
quantitative studies, internal validity is the summation of the
reasons why the researcher/author was confident that any
conclusions the researcher made were warranted from the data
collected and the method used. Did the researcher(s)
demonstrate that the methods used to collect and analyze the
data lead to the trustworthiness of conclusions drawn? One
potential threat to validity to consider for quantitative research
is the validity of the instrument or instruments used (see
Creswell & Creswell p. 153). How did the Kim describe the
validity of the instrument? How do we know the instrument is
valid (that is, it measures what it purports to measure)? If the
validity and ethical issues and considerations were not
discussed, that omission is a weakness and limitation in the
study and indicate the omission and which of these components
were missing. In reflecting demographics ensure you use
properly formatted in text citations. When you cite figures from
a study, include an in-text citation.]

study. Include key details. Remember – at the doctoral level
you should use direct quotes sparingly because the bulk of your
writing should consist of summarizing or paraphrasing.

Discussion/Conclusion
[Describe how the Chen et al. (2019) connected the study's
results to the literature presented in the literature review (the
term systems literature refers to the related relevant literature
presented in the study’s literature review). In other words, what
concepts, assumptions and or expectations from the literature
review were confirmed by the study’s results? Describe and

is missing or not sufficiently addressed as part of your review
and critique. Conclude by describing how Chen et al.’s findings
could be applied to practice. In other words, what did your
learn from Chen et al.’s study that could be applied by
practitioners (organizational leaders)?]

Abstract
Although flipped learning has been recognized as being a
potential approach enabling
students to learn at their own pace before the class and
facilitating in-depth peer-
to-peer and student-to-teacher interactions in the class, it
remains a challenge to
promote students’ active learning in the before-class stage,
which could significantly
affect their in-class engagement and learning performance. In
this study, a reflective
thinking-promoting approach is proposed to facilitate students’
learning design project
performance, technology-enhanced active engagement, and their
reflective thinking
and participation in the before-class stage of flipped learning. A
quasi-experiment was
conducted on a flipped Digital Learning course of a Master’s
program in a university
to evaluate the effects of the approach on students’ learning
design performance,
engagement, reflective thinking and participation. A total of 19
students (7 male
and 12 female) were in the experimental group learning with the
reflective thinking-
promoting approach, while 19 (4 male and 15 female) were in
the control group
14. learning, students need to fully par-
ticipate and be engaged in designed pre-class and in-class
activities and experience the process
of remembering, understanding, analysis, synthesis, evaluation
and finally conceptual change.
This process is recognized as the development of reflective
thinking (Atkins & Murphy, 1993;
Practitioner Notes
What is already known about this topic
• Flipping learning is an effective teaching approach that shifts
the lecture time to the
before-class stage and hence teachers have more time to conduct
learning activities
to promote students’ higher order thinking as well as to deal
with individual students
learning problems.
• Students’ learning experience, motivation and belief could be
the factors that guide
students towards engagement and participation in content and
help them learn new
skills.
• Engaging students in reflective thinking is an important and
challenging issue. It
provides students with an opportunity to scrutinize their own
learning and hence
make progress.
What this paper adds
• A reflective thinking-promoting approach into flipped learning
is proposed to facil-

Hong & Choi, 2015), a natural form of learning from
experience and reflection. Moreover, it is
an active, persistent and careful consideration (Porntaweekul,
Raksasataya, & Nethanomsak,
2016). If students can be aware of and govern their learning by
actively participating in reflective
thinking, that is, if they can assess what they know, what they
need to know and how they bridge
that gap in learning contexts, learning will occur. Therefore, in
this study, we aimed to examine
the effect of a reflective thinking-promoting approach on
students’ learning design performance
and reflective thinking compared with conventional flipped
learning. Meanwhile, students’ tech-
nology-enhanced active engagement and participation in the
learning management system
(hereafter LMS) were scrutinized. Further, we hoped to build up
a systematic module, leading to
more replicable and sustained flipped classrooms. Four research
questions are addressed:
1. Does the reflective thinking-promoting approach enhance
students’ learning design
performance?
2. Does the reflective thinking-promoting approach strengthen
students’ engagement?
3. Does the reflective thinking-promoting approach boost the
students’ reflective thinking?
4. How does the reflective thinking-promoting approach boost
the students’ participation in the
before-class stage of flipped learning?
17. Literature review
Flipped learning
The flipped classroom refers to the teaching mode which
reverses the traditional instruction
by delivering teachers’ lectures at the pre-class stage in the
form of instructional videos or
other media to enable teachers to have more time in the class to
help students do exercises and
solve the learning problems they encounter (Bergmann & Sams,
2012). In addition, the Flipped
Learning Network (https ://flipp edlea rning.org/) has stated the
importance of conducting effec-
tive “flipped learning” by taking four components (ie, flexible
environment, learning culture,
intentional content and professional educator) into account.
Researchers have further indicated
the need to employ effective learning strategies in flipped
classrooms rather than only paying at-
tention to the development of pre-class instructional videos to
draw on learners’ active learning
and engagement (Bishop & Verleger, 2013). Jensen, Kummer,
and Godoy (2015) defined that ac-
tive learning is using additional technology, teaching materials
and peer instruction for mean-
ingful learning experience. Instead of teaching, the focus should
be on how to involve students in
autonomous learning, that is “the involvement of students in
activities and thinking about activ-
ities.” In addition, Hung’s study (2015) indicated that active
learning involves students in doing
activities and in thinking about the information, they are
learning. In her study, the experimen-
tal group participants had also invested more out-of-class study
time in demonstrating their
learning engagement. Many educators and teachers have
19. aside from assessing learners’
retention and understanding of the subject matter, teachers,
based on learners’ diversity and on
their knowledge and experiences, implement a learner-centered
learning approach to have inter-
active classroom activities (Soliman, 2016).
However, flipping a class does not really contribute to flipped
learning. Flipped learning requires
certain kinds of action (Hamdan et al., 2013; Hwang, Lai, &
Wang, 2015). The Flipped Learning
Network presented an effective flipped learning model with four
components: flexible environ-
ment, learning culture, intentional content and professional
educator (Hung, 2017). There are
still some implications worth restating. First of all, the learning
environment has to remain flexible
enough to create individual work areas, small group work
spaces, and whole class mingling and
demonstration stations (Bergmann & Sams, 2012). Next, a wide
variety of learning experiences,
approaches and academic-support strategies shift from the
teacher-centered to learner-centered
orientation, focusing on one-to-one differentiated instruction
and immediate feedback in a com-
fortable learning culture (Bergmann & Sams, 2012). A
scaffolding effect on cognitive and social
development occurs at any moment (Hamdan et al., 2013).
Moreover, the video content is not
simply “add-on” homework; it helps learners to build up a solid
foundation for in-class activities
and to develop their conceptual understanding and procedural
fluency (Seaboyer, 2013).
Over the past decade, numerous studies have shown a sequence
of positive results, including learn-
20. ers’ academic performance (Bergmann & Sams, 2012; Sergis,
Sampson, & Pelliccione, 2018), per-
ceptions of engagement and learning skills (Elmaadaway,
2018), satisfaction (Bergmann & Sams,
2012), self-regulation (Lai & Hwang, 2016; Sun, Wu, & Lee,
2017), preferences (Bates & Galloway,
2012), technology acceptance (Kissi, Nat, & Armah, 2018) and
so on. Nevertheless, the core
value of flipped learning, that is, higher-order thinking skills,
is less discussed and less satisfac-
torily resolved. Flipped learning, not just revolving around
lecture-based learning to attain lower
thinking skills, that is, understanding and memorization, also
encourages learners to develop
higher order thinking skills in class: to apply, synthesize and
even create knowledge (Seaboyer,
2013). Therefore, a sound, comprehensive flipped learning
module will be outlined in this paper.
Technology-enhanced active engagement and participation
Learning effectiveness is determined by students’ optimal
engagement, and this engage-
ment is achieved by factors that promote learning (Chuang,
Weng, & Chen, 2018; Shernoff,
Csikszentmihalyi, Schneider, & Shernoff, 2003). Students’
optimal engagement is their
self-awareness of and their commitment to their own learning
(Andrusyszyn & Yankou, 2004).
Chen and Wu (2012), for instance, indicated that in learners’
experience, motivation and be-
lief are the factors that guide learners towards engagement in
content and help them learn
new skills. The former is derived from the motive for learners’
actions, willingness and goals,
whereas the latter is a firmly held opinion related to their
learning strategies, academic perfor-
22. learning process (Peng, Wang, & Sampson, 2017). It seizes the
idea of learning by doing and
eventually leads students to knowledge construction and
continuous learning (Argote & Miron-
Spektor, 2011; Pahl & Kenny, 2008). Technology is an effective
tool that can facilitate the learn-
ing process and consecutively create an active environment for
learners to build their knowledge,
skills, experience and engagement. For this reason, a reflective
analysis of existing technology-en-
hanced active learning engagement becomes crucial in this
present study.
Learning engagement determines whether learners have learned
throughout the course, but it
is an individual attribute and needs to be examined (Felder &
Brent, 2005; Ventura & Moscoloni,
2015). Based on the theory of Flow, proposed by
Csikszentmihalyi (1990), Schwarzenberg,
Navon, Nussbaum, Pérez-Sanagustín, and Caballero (2018) set
up a more thorough, compre-
hensive assessment model to measure learning experience. In
this model, the constructs of learn-
ing experience were adopted from Shernoff, Csikszentmihalyi,
Schneider, and Shernoff ’s (2003)
engagement, which consists of feedback, challenge, peer
instruction, choice and enjoyment. In
the construct of feedback, three dimensions are focused on: (1)
the objectives and success, (2)
self-current performance and (3) task completeness. Challenge,
slightly beyond one’s current
level of ability, has a discernible effect on academic
performance. Peer instruction provides learn-
ers with an opportunity to interact and learn from each other; it
has a positive impact on learn-
ing achievement. The perceived choice is related to one’s
23. satisfaction and autonomous learning.
Enjoyment refers to the satisfaction with the expected outcomes
of the task.
In this study, we utilized Schwarzenberg and his colleagues’
(2018) experience model as a refer-
ence to investigate learners’ engagement because it combines
theories that describe the factors
motivating learners and the conditions needed to generate the
optimum engagement. With the
help of the LMSs that monitor learners’ participation in the
before-class stage of flipped learning,
it is believed that technology-enhanced active engagement most
likely represents a learner’s con-
ceptions of how, when and where flipped learning does and can
take place.
Reflective thinking
Reflective thinking (also known as RT) is rational thinking
realized by mental discipline (Kok,
2002). It is often used synonymously with critical thinking, but
unlike critical thinking which
includes various thinking skills leading to satisfying outcomes,
RT puts more emphasis on the
process of making decisions or stating opinions about what has
happened (Evans, 2010; Schön,
2017). RT provides learners with a structured opportunity to
scrutinize their own learning
(Verpoorten, Westera, & Specht, 2011). During a reflective
activity, learners can develop reflec-
tive thinking skills by (1) relating new knowledge to previous
understandings, (2) thinking in
abstract and conceptual ways, (3) applying specific strategies in
new tasks and (4) understand-
ing their own ideas and thoughts (Hwang, Wu, & Ke, 2011).
25. understand and comprehend a
concept in academic learning. As for reflection, based on
Dewey’s definition (1933, p. 9), learners
engage in intellectual and affective activities, raise questions,
test the assumptions during the
process of problem solving, and finally gain new
understandings and appreciations. The last is
a critical reflection, part of a higher order of thinking. It is a
reasoning process which finally
reaches a perspective transformation. Having the identities of
scales, the next step is to draw up
the effect of a reflective thinking-promoting approach in
flipped learning.
Ref lective thinking-promoting approach for f lipped learning
The “reflective thinking-promoting approach” proposed in this
study emphasizes the guided
“reflection” in a project after engaging students in the learning
process of watch-annotate, sum-
marize-question, discuss-give feedback and reflect-project by
referring to Rath’s (2014) WSQ
(Watch-Summary-Question) framework and Bloom’s Taxonomy
Matrix (Anderson et al., 2001)
to serve as the theoretical framework of the flipped learning
activities. The proposed approach is
divided into watch-annotate and summarize-question in the pre-
class stage, discuss-give feed-
back in the in-class stage, and reflect-project in the after-class
stage, with six cognitive process
dimensions (remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate and
create) and four knowledge di-
mensions (factual, conceptual procedural, knowledge and
metacognitive) of Bloom’s Taxonomy
Matrix (Anderson et al., 2001), as shown in Figure 1. This is
intended to enhance learners’ reflec-
tive thinking with a positive learning experience.
26. Pardo et al. (2015) stated that video annotation could be a
beneficial strategy to help learners
achieve their learning outcomes. In conventional flipped
learning, video watching as a pre-class
activity is a less interactive and one-way form of learning (Lai
& Hwang, 2016). Fu and Hwang
(2018) stated that the adoption of technologies could promote
learners’ learning engagement,
reflection and reflective thinking. Because of more recent
advanced technologies, considering
the “1know” system (http://www.1know.net) as an LMS
example as mentioned earlier, it can
offer time-stamped annotation features, whereby learners can
watch course videos and take
notes. Meanwhile, learners can also pause, rewind, re-watch the
videos. In addition, a reflective
thinking-promoting approach was adopted not only to watch-
annotate but also to summarize
question as a series of tasks before class, and then the learners
discussed the question selected by
the instructor and then provided feedback in class. The purpose
is to help the learners engage in
reflective thinking based on Bloom’s Taxonomy Matrix.
Accordingly, they were given a chance to
develop reflective thinking skills (see Figure 2).
To evaluate the effect of incorporating the reflective thinking-
promoting approach into flipped
learning on learner’ learning performance, technology-enhanced
active engagement, reflec-
tive thinking and participation in the before-class stage of
flipped learning, the reflective think-
ing-promoting approach was implemented in an online learning
management system (LMS), the
30. students to cultivate their reading and research skills. Students
were instructed to study vari-
ous digital learning strategies (eg, peer assessment, project-
based learning and problem-based
learning) via literature review and analysis, and to analyze the
subjects’ learning performances
and patterns from various aspects by applying the strategies to
practical educational settings.
Journal readings were examples related to the learning design
and research design methods
introduced in the instructional videos, such as learning
strategies and pedagogical theories. In
class, the students were guided to implement learning design
and research design as well as to
analyze the data (eg, learning logs) provided by the instructor
using the learning strategies and
analysis methods learned in the pre-class stage. The
instructional videos were developed by an
experienced professor who had had more than 20 years’
experience teaching the course, and
were reviewed by another experienced educational technology
instructor and two flipped learn-
ing experts recognized by FLGlobal.
In this course, the participants gave graded reports during the
class to display their knowledge
and to present all aspects of their original research ideas to
fellow researchers in the field. The
class was carried out in the read-and-present format. That is, the
professor had a list of journal
articles on the syllabus for each week related to the strategies of
digital learning; each partici-
pant studied one of the articles and then gave an in-class
report. Each participant was asked to
summarize the objectives and findings of the journal article
during his or her report, and to dis-
31. cuss ideas and provide their own reflections on the readings
with other participants. During the

experimental group generated open-
ended questions based on the instructional videos related to the
topics of the lecture, such as,
“What kind of teaching strategies can be used to increase
germane cognitive load and promote
schema properties?” and “What teaching methods can be used to
transform short-term memory
into long-term memory?” These questions were posted by the
students of the experimental group
after they watched the instructional videos, and were then
selected and edited by the professor.
On some occasions (eg, when some important issues were
overlooked by the students), the pro-
fessor could propose questions as well. Then, both the
experimental group and the control group
students discussed these questions in class. The professor
explained and clarified any confusion
about the video lectures after their discussion.
Figure 4 shows the experimental design of this study. The
experiment was conducted on the four
units of an Analysis and Applying Strategies of Digital
Learning Literature course, which aims
to teach the graduate students the analysis and applying
strategies of digital learning literature.
Before the experiment, the two groups of students spent
3 weeks on the concepts of flipped class-
room strategies. Pre-learning assessments for evaluating their
knowledge of collecting digital
learning literature and reporting on a digital learning paper was
administered. Following that,
the participants in the experimental group were required to
watch seven videos, take notes, write
a summary, and post a question before class meetings; on the
other hand, those in the control
35. group were required to do similar activities except for taking
notes and posting a question before
class meetings. In the pre-class tasks, the students in the
experimental group and control group
were required to watch videos and then write a summary on the
LMS platform before the com-
mencement of the class. The videos were embedded with a few
short questions to enhance stu-
dents’ understanding of that topic. The duration for each pre-
class video was kept to a maximum
of 16:42 minutes and an average of 12:05 minutes because of
the constraint of students’ con-
centration time (Brame, 2016). Researchers have suggested that
the duration of the video lec-
tures in flipped learning should be class grade multiplied by 1.5
in minutes (Atwa, Din, & Hussin,
2018; Bergmann & Sams, 2012), with a maximum video length
of around 20 minutes for older
students (Handke & Franke, 2013; Phillips & Trainor, 2014).
The pre-class video was uploaded, and the pre-class tasks were
assigned each week in the LMS
platform. The pre-class tasks are the summary of the assigned
journal papers, and summary and
annotation of the video lecture, as shown in Figure 5. The
students in the experimental group
and control group were required to summarize and submit what
they had remembered and com-
prehended concerning the video’s content. However, in the
experimental group, the students
were required to post a question regarding what they had
watched from the video lectures. The
instructor would select 10 frequently asked questions and have
students in both the experimental
group and the control group discuss them as one of the in-class
tasks. After all the pre-class and
37. dimensions, that is, correctness,
completeness, innovation and effectiveness. The two
instructors’ ratings were found to have the
substantial agreement of inter-rater consistency .77 Cohen’s
Kappa (Cohen, 1960).
The technology-enhanced active student engagement
questionnaire was adopted from the learn-
ing experience assessment scale developed by Schwarzenberg et
al. (2018). The questionnaire
consisted of 18 items in five subscales, namely feedback (six
items), challenge (three items), peer
instruction (three items), choice (three items) and enjoyment
(three items), with a 5-point Likert
scale. The Cronbach’s alpha values of the subscales are, .90,
.76, .84, .73 and .60 respectively.
The questionnaire of reflective thinking was adopted based on
the questionnaire to measure the
level of reflective thinking developed by Kember et al. (2000).
It consists of 16 items, includ-
ing four dimensions: habitual action, reflection, critical
reflections and understanding. The
Cronbach’s alpha values of the four dimensions were .80, .87,
.91 and .81 respectively.
The time spent viewing video lectures and the words posted in
the assigned tasks were collected
for analysis of participation behaviors in the before-class stage
of flipped learning. There were
seven video lectures (total 5,081 seconds, average 726 seconds)
and 17 tasks published in LMS.
During the 4-week flipped learning, participants in the
experimental group and control group
Figure 4: Experiment procedure
40. significantly different with t = 2.21 (p < .05). There was a
significant difference between the
two groups with d = .71 (Cohen, 1988). This implies that there
was more positive effect on the
learning engagement of the participants in the experimental
group than on those in the control
group.
We also performed t-tests to assess the impact of specific
dimensions. As shown in Table 4, it is
recognized that peer instruction t = 2.65 (p < .05, d = .86) had
more positive effect, with a sig-
nificant difference, on the experimental group (M = 4.77 SD
= .33) than on the control group
(M = 4.33 SD = .64).
Reflective thinking
The t-test outcome of the comparison of reflective thinking for
the two learning approaches
is shown in Table 5. The mean of reflective thinking ratings for
the experimental group was
4.57 (t = 3.34, p < .01, d = 1.11), which was significantly
higher than that of the control group
(mean = 4.16). Furthermore, the result of reflective thinking for
the two groups represents a good
effect size according to Cohen’s (1988) criteria, where a
Cohen’s d value greater than .8 is con-
sidered as a large effect size. This means that with the reflective
thinking-promoting approach
incorporated into the flipped learning approach, the students
achieved significantly higher re-
flective thinking than those in the conventional flipped learning
approach. In other words, the
reflective thinking-promoting approach can successfully
promote students’ reflective thinking.
42. words (Chinese characters) they posted was analyzed. Table 7
shows the t-test results of the com-
parison of the experimental group (Mean = 1217.72, t = 3.14,
p < .01, d = 1.01) which spent
significantly more time than the control group (Mean =
885.99) watching video lectures. In
addition, the t-test results also reveal that the experimental
group (Mean = 1344.26, t = 5.66,
p < .001, d = 1.84) posted significantly more words than the
control group (Mean = 1005.68).
Discussion and conclusions
The study aimed to explore students’ engagement and
participation in active learning with
learning management systems and to examine the effect of
whether a reflective thinking-pro-
moting approach would enhance students’ flipped learning
design performance and participa-
tion. The implications of the findings are discussed as follows.
In general, the findings provide evidence to support the
reflective thinking-promoting approach.
Concerning research questions 1 and 3: This study aimed to
measure the impact of the inte-
grated reflective thinking-promoting approach in flipped
learning on the students’ learning
design performance and reflective thinking of graduate students
in the fall 2018 Analysis and
Applying Strategies of Digital Learning Literature course. In
the experimental group, the partici-
pants showed a significantly higher level of learning design
performance and reflective thinking,

2009; Verpoorten, Westera, & Specht, 2011). This is consistent
with a considerable amount of
literature demonstrating the correlation of higher order skills
with students’ success in learning
(Ghanizadeh, 2017; Kealey et al., 2005). Phan (2009) further
demonstrated that the effective-
ness of the learning process is influenced by reflective
thinking; likewise, learning achievement
is influenced by reflective thinking. Reflective thinking fosters
knowledge that can be applied to a
variety of situations and contexts. Students have the capability
to reflect initially, to acquire and
then to generate the new knowledge, so they tend to be more
successful academically.
Flipped learning combines video lectures on LMSs as pre-class
content instruction and in-class
hands-on activities that encourage students to practice, apply,
reflect and master the content that

active engagement, the students with a reflective thinking-
promoting approach overall outper-
formed the students in the conventional flipped learning
environment. As Chuang, Weng, and
Chen (2018) mentioned, students’ optimal engagement that
promotes learning depends on
certain factors. In this study, taking notes and posting questions
are such behaviors of learning
engagement.
In terms of detailed constructs of the engagement, the students
with a reflective thinking-
promoting approach had a statistically significant difference in
peer instruction, compared
with the students in the conventional flipped learning
environment. Students’ learning engage-
ment and active learning were examined in this study. Gilboy et
al. (2015) claimed that learn-
ing engagement is students’ commitment to and responsibility
for learning as they contribute
their time and effort to their learning production. Jensen,
Kummer, and Godoy (2015) defined
that active learning is using additional technology, teaching
materials and peer instruction for
a meaningful learning experience. Instead of teaching, the
focus should be on how to involve
students in autonomous learning, that is, the involvement of
students in activities and think-
ing about activities. In addition, Hung (2015) indicated that
active learning involves students in
doing activities and thinking about the information they are
learning. In her study, the partici-
pants of the experimental group also invested more out-of-class
study time to demonstrate their
learning engagement. In this study, the participants in the
48. experimental group increased their
participation time in the before-class stage of flipped learning,
where they needed to take notes
and reflect when raising questions. In class, they had deeper
discussions on their own questions
with peers and the instructor. The process of student
engagement was the reason for their active
learning (Pahl & Kenny, 2008). Lastly, it was found that the
students in both groups had high
values for feedback, challenge, peer instruction, choice and
enjoyment (with means of more than
four on the 5-point Likert scale). Perhaps that is because the
LMS can show students’ color-coded
progress on each task list, which resulted in their commitment
and enhanced their attentiveness
to their own and their peers’ learning progress.
The present study examined students’ engagement in active
learning with learning manage-
ment, and the findings were positive. Meanwhile, this is
evidence that a reflective thinking-
promoting approach can enhance students’ flipped learning
design performance and participa-
tion. A reflective-thinking promoting approach amplifies the
core value of flipped learning, that
is, higher-order thinking. Students can activate their intuitive
reflection and gain learning expe-
rience skills by analyzing, synthesizi ng and evaluating what
they have learned when interacting
with the video content instruction and discussions from their
peers and instructor. In addition,
with the LMSs that monitor students’ progress, instructors can
recognize the factors that affect
students’ learning, adjust or differentiate their instruction and
even provide students with more
opportunities or with additional support to meet students’ needs
